When it comes to Subaru
When it comes to Subaru disappointments they give us a generous variety - blown head gaskets, nothing we can do about it. High oil consumption, it's normal. Then as you say CVTs don't need new fluid, no need to worry until the warranty is over, then you get the bill.
Maybe their engineers just vape too much THC because they also say you have to flush the brake fluid every 30K miles to keep your warranty intact and you have to change your synthetic engine oil every 6K miles. Toyota says 10K miles. When I asked the dealer service advisor why that is she said If Subaru said 10K miles everyone would have an empty crankcase by then.
